Just got my issue of AUTRE in the mail starring James Franco.
No more pictures!  Order your own, IT'S FREE.  Once you get it you'll feel guilty about not paying money for something so prime.

Dazed/Punch Drunk



Dazed Digital just did an article on Blaak's Fall 2011 line and in the words of Mia Wallace, "I said goddamn!....god-damn."
Look at those shiny suits!  I think I'm going to do a post just on shiny suits. 



Gorgeous photography from Dazed Digital.

Still can't decide if this is what we desperately need or the product of a calculated marketing machine.  At least the music's good.

Punk Lesson #472

Wear your trousers tight so all the blood rushes to your head and makes you do this:

TECHNICOLOR (Because You're Young)

DIY crayola hair.  Fun for all, all for fun.  It's summer for crissakes.

METHOD I: "The Ziggy" 
Difficulty: Medium
Ingredients: Hair bleach, Manic Panic dyes
If you aren't platinum blonde, you have to bleach your hair for the color to be vibrant.  Follow the directions on the bleach you got.  If you wash the bleach out and your hair isn't light enough, wait a week or two before you put more bleach in or your hair WILL fall out.

Manic Panic that shit.  I suggest picking colors your sister would have liked in the 2nd grade.  If you want a pastel-y look, I've heard mixing the color with conditioner to thin it out makes it paler.
METHOD II: "Suicide"
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients: Kool-Aid
If of course you can't be bothered to go into a store and buy dye, pull a Cobain and soak your hair in a vat of Kool-Aid.  This will only work if you already have blonde hair.
METHOD III: "Fuck All"
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients: Colored powder
So for this you can use powdered make up or powdered hair dye (I guess they make that now?).  Or try powdered Gatorade maybe.  I wouldn't recommend using paint pigment unless you're positive it's non-toxic.  Remember kids, cadmium kills.  This is easy-peasy, chuck some powder on your head and muss it up and shake out the excess.  You don't necessarily need blonde hair to do this, but it will come out way better.  (warning: this will stain your clothes and anything else you walk near when you go out, but that can be fun)

METHOD IV: "Last Resort"
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients: Eggs, Spray color
I mean you don't have to use raw eggs to spike your hair, but if you wanna go hardcore "Freaks and Geeks" go for it.  The spray hair color is pretty self-explanatory.
NOTE: Whatever method you try, you pretty much have to listen to The Stooges while you do it.  Eatshitdye!
